Disclosure of Certain Matters Each of Quartet, Holdco, Merger Sub, the Company and the Stockholders will provide the others with prompt written notice of any event, development or condition that (a) would cause any of such party’s representations and warranties to become untrue or misleading or which may affect its ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) had it existed or been known on the date hereof would have been required to be disclosed under this Agreement, (c) gives such party any reason to believe that any of the conditions set forth in Article VI will not be satisfied, (d) is of a nature that is or may be materially adverse to the operations or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company, or (e) would require any amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement/Prospectus. The parties shall have the obligation to supplement or amend the Company Schedules and Quartet Schedules (the “Disclosure Schedules”) being delivered concurrently with the execution of this Agreement with respect to any material matter hereafter arising or discovered which, if existing or known at the date of this Agreement, would have been required to be set forth or described in the Disclosure Schedules. The obligations of the parties to amend or supplement the Disclosure Schedules being delivered herewith shall terminate on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding any such amendment or supplementation, for purposes of Sections 6.2(a), 6.3(a), 7.1(a)(i), 8.1(d) and 8.1(e), the representations and warranties of the parties shall be made with reference to the Disclosure Schedules as they exist at the time of execution of this Agreement, subject to such anticipated changes as are set forth in Schedule 4.1 or otherwise expressly contemplated by this Agreement or that are set forth in the Disclosure Schedules as they exist on the date of this Agreement.
Notification of Certain Matters The Company shall give prompt notice to Parent, and Parent shall give prompt notice to the Company, of (i) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event, the occurrence or non-occurrence of which is likely to cause any representation or warranty of the Company and Parent, respectively, contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate at or prior to the Effective Time and (ii) any failure of the Company or Parent, as the case may be, to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it hereunder; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.9 shall not limit or otherwise affect any remedies available to the party receiving such notice.
Effect of Certain Transactions After a merger of one or more corporations with or into the Company or after a consolidation of the Company and one or more corporations in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation own after such merger or consolidation shares representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company or the surviving or resulting corporation, as the case may be, the Holder shall, at no additional cost, be entitled upon exercise of this Option to receive in lieu of the shares of Common Stock as to which this Option was exercisable immediately prior to such event, the number and class of shares of stock or other securities, cash or property (including, without limitation, shares of stock or other securities of another corporation or Common Stock) to which the Holder would have been entitled pursuant to the terms of the agreement of merger or consolidation if, immediately prior to such merger or consolidation, the Holder had been the holder of record of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares for which this Option shall be so exercised. If the Company is merged with or into or consolidated with another corporation, other than a merger or consolidation in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such merger or consolidation continue to own after such merger or consolidation shares representing at least fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Company or the surviving or resulting corporation, as the case may be, or if the Company is liquidated, or sells or otherwise disposes of substantially all its assets to another corporation while this Option remains outstanding, then (i) subject to the provisions of clause (ii) below, after the effective date of such merger, consolidation, liquidation, sale or disposition, as the case may be, the Holder of this Option shall be entitled, upon exercise of this Option, to receive, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock as to which this Option was exercisable immediately prior to such event, the number and class of shares of stock or other securities, cash or property (including, without limitation, shares of stock or other securities of another corporation or Common Stock) to which the Holder would have been entitled pursuant to the terms of the merger, consolidation, liquidation, sale or disposition if, immediately prior to such event, the Holder had been the holder of a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares as to which such Option shall be so exercised; or (ii) this Option may be canceled by the Committee as of the effective date of any such merger, consolidation, liquidation, sale or disposition provided that (x) notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Holder and (y) the Holder shall have the right to exercise this Option to the extent that the same is then exercisable or, if the Committee shall have accelerated the time for exercise of this Option pursuant to clause (ii) above, in full during the 10-day period preceding and including the effective date of such merger, consolidation, liquidation, sale or disposition.
Notice of Certain Matters (a) From the date hereof until the Closing, each Party shall promptly notify the other Parties of any occurrence of which it is aware that is reasonably likely to result in any of the conditions set forth in Article VI becoming incapable of being satisfied; provided, however, that any Party’s failure to give notice of any such occurrence as required pursuant to this Section 5.3(a) shall not be (i) deemed to be a breach of the covenant contained in this Section 5.3(a), but instead shall (if applicable) constitute only a breach of the applicable underlying representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, or (ii) taken into account in determining whether the conditions to Closing set forth in Article VI have been satisfied. (b) Without limitation to Section 5.3(a), if there occurs any facts, events or circumstances after the date hereof and before the Closing that constitutes a material breach of any representations or warranties of the Warrantors that are to be repeated at the Closing, the Warrantors shall promptly execute a certificate detailing such facts, events or circumstances and deliver such certificate to Orchid Asia, whereupon the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to have been updated with such facts, events or circumstances as set forth in such certificate (but such update shall be deemed to qualify only the representations and warranties (other than the Warrantor Fundamental Warranties) that are repeated at the Closing). Upon and after any such update to the Disclosure Schedule, (i) if the Warrantors acknowledge that such facts, events or circumstances are adverse to the interests of the Group Companies or Orchid Asia in a material respect, Orchid Asia shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Company, and (ii) if Orchid Asia and the Warrantors, in their respective reasonable beliefs, disagree as to whether such facts, events or circumstances are adverse to the interests of the Group Companies or Orchid Asia in a material respect, Orchid Asia and the Warrantors shall consult with each other in good faith with a view to resolving such disagreement (including agreeing on any adjustments to the terms of the transactions contemplated hereby that may be necessary) as soon as reasonably practicable, provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Orchid Asia (x) shall not be obligated to proceed with the Closing unless and until Orchid Asia and the Warrantors have resolved such disagreement through mutual consultation, and (y) shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Company at any time after the Long Stop Date if the Closing shall not have occurred as of the Long Stop Date.
